Description
A person stands among a seated crowd inside a church with a vaulted ceiling, wooden beams, and tall windows. The individual appears to be addressing the group, holding a piece of paper. Overhead, a hanging light fixture illuminates the area. The audience includes people of various ages, many of whom are attentively listening, while a few are turned toward the speaker. The atmosphere suggests a community meeting or public forum.
